Rather than buy a card with TV-Out, I just got a VGA -> SVideo/Composite/Component adapter. The GrantTec Ultimate XP Pro - $80.

Hi,

Im thinking about putting together a multimedia PC to use as a TV and DVD Player etc. I want to connect this to my TV just like my regular VCR etc.

My current PC has a TV out, but the signal doesnt appear to stretch to the edges of my TV screen and looks rather ugly. I can find no way to fix this. The card is an ASUS 7100 GForce2MX with TV out, I have so far had no luck getting the TV out to work under linux, this isnt a problem since I intend to build a new PC for this.

Can someone recommend either a Motherboard or video card with TV out card where you can set the default primary display without using software. Some motherboards have TV out built in (various AOpen m/boards do anyway) Does anyone know if you can enable the TV out to be the primary display in bios or something?

I know that some mini-itx boards will do this, but I was hoping to just use a regular PC with some more grunt to do re-encoding etc

Cheers
